2024 HYUNDAI PALISADE Limited

The auction record identifies this vehicle as a salvage-title vehicle with collision damage and lists the front end as the primary damage area. Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence supports this unverified auction claim and damage code, with extensive damage concentrated at the front end. The 2024 Hyundai Palisade has severe damage to the front passenger-side corner. The hood is heavily creased and bent upward, with the leading edge sitting above the front fascia. The front bumper cover is absent or torn away in several areas, and detached plastic sections and internal radiator-area components are exposed. The passenger-side headlamp assembly is missing, with broken housing and mounting material visible. The passenger-side grille and adjacent fascia are also broken or missing. The front fender leading edge is distorted and has an irregular broken edge near the missing headlamp, with additional deformation at the hood-to-fender junction. Broken upper front trim and radiator-area plastic are visible as well. The supplied VIN decodes this vehicle as a Limited trim sport utility vehicle assembled by Hyundai Motor Co. in South Korea. It is equipped with a 3.8-liter gasoline GDI Lambda II engine and four-wheel drive. Factory safety equipment listed in the decode includes front, side, curtain, and driver-knee airbags, ABS, electronic stability control, forward-collision warning, pedestrian automatic emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, lane-departure warning, lane-keeping assistance, blind-spot monitoring, and rear cross-traffic alert. NHTSA records list the following recall campaigns for certain vehicles of this make, model, and year: campaign 23V526000 concerning overheating of the Idle Stop & Go electric oil-pump controller and possible fire risk; campaign 23V599000 concerning the front passenger occupant-detection system and airbag activation; campaign 24V106000 concerning valve springs that may break and cause loss of drive power or engine damage; campaign 25V607000 concerning rear seat-belt buckles that may fail to latch; and campaign 26V034000 concerning possible improper deployment of third-row side-curtain airbags.
